Reporter, are you really using TB version 59, that is, some old beta?

Actually, changing layout.css.devPixelPerPx will make the text/fonts grow bigger and many panels will be too small, right?

This is a toolkit error, probably because of rounding errors. I know there are other bugs with this issue, also in toolkit, but I can't find them now.

Hello:

Same error on Thunderbird 60.3.2 64 bits on GNU/Linux Debian Stretch
Window size when delete attach is small. If resize not save new size for when to erase again.

That's not really supported, is it, Richard? What effects does this have on Linux?

[Richard Marti (:Paenglab)]

There are other bugs around with issues like this with scaling (also Mac and Windows) where the dialog/window isn't correctly scaled to the content. It's not a TB issue but a toolkit one.

Hello:
I forgot to say that the desktop is Xfce.
Where would the bug open?
Xfce? Gtk? other?
